Hurit, a daring and beautiful young girl, became a close friend with Elisabeth in Plymouth. The story is based on actual events that occurred in the early 1600s through 1623 in England, Holland, and the New World. Friendships and romances are woven together with politics, trade, and religious differences of the time. Fact and fiction are blended to tell an uplifting story of improbable connections
